Job description

About Tilt

We’re reinventing shopping for the 21st century—bringing joy, connection, and a splash of chaos back to e-commerce. Tilt is the UK’s biggest live shopping platform, and we’re just getting started. We raised an $18M Series A and are building a world-class team across ops, product, and finance.

Now we’re looking for a sharp, organised, and ambitious Finance Analyst to join our small but mighty finance team and help us scale our processes, visibility, and impact.

Your Mission

You’ll be the connective tissue across the finance function—owning the core processes that keep our financials sharp and scalable. From month-end to management accounts, investor reporting to tax ops, you’ll help build the engine that supports Tilt’s growth.

You’ll work closely with our Finance Lead and collaborate across Ops, Studios, and Marketing. This is a rare opportunity to get deep exposure to a fast-scaling business and develop as a full-stack finance operator.

What You’ll Do

0–3 Months

• Reconcile revenue, cost of sales, inventory, expenses, and balance sheet accounts

• Prepare journal entries, trial balances, and support preparation of financial statements

• Assist with month-end close: accruals, prepayments, and variance analysis

• Help maintain department-level budgets and spending visibility across the business

• Prepare documentation for VAT, payroll, R&D tax claims, and other filings

• Track and record accounts payable/receivable

• Contribute to equity operations: cap table review, option grants, EMI admin

3+ Months

• Assist with cash flow forecasting and long-term scenario planning

• Own monthly budget-vs-actuals updates for key teams

• Support investor reporting and compliance (e.g. Digital Platform Reporting, Companies House)

• Use spreadsheets—and potentially SQL or Python—to streamline and automate finance workflows

• Contribute to finance process improvements across reporting, controls, and tooling

What We’re Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in a finance, accounting, or FP&A role (startup or practice background welcome)

• Studying towards or recently started CIMA / ACCA / ACA

• Degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field—with core modules in financial accounting

• Strong understanding of journal posting, trial balances, and accounting principles

• Familiarity with month-end reporting and/or preparing management accounts

• Bonus: Exposure to equity topics (EMI schemes, options, cap tables)

• Bonus: Some fluency or interest in SQL, Python, or other data tools

• Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities with minimal hand-holding

• Excited to join a growing team and contribute to a finance function with high impact

Expected start date is August 15th or sooner

• Truly flexible hours—work when you’re at your best
